2009 promises to be a breakout year for actor/comedian/musician Nick Thune. Thune can currently be seen on the web series "Nick's Big Show," available on Atom.com and NicksBigShow.com. This six-episode mockumentary follows Thune as his puts his comedy career on hold to do something much more important: write, direct and produce his dramatic one man show that will make the all-important demographic - humans - remember "what it's like to feel again."
In coming weeks, "Nick's Big Show" will be distributed widely to consumers across Atom's multi-platform distribution network, including the "Atom TV" series on Comedy Central, mobile phone partners and other leading Internet destinations including iTunes, AOL, Dailymotion and xBox Live.

Thune will next be seen on the big screen in Miramax Films Extract opposite Jason Batemen, Ben Affleck and Mila Kunis. The comedy from Director/Writer Mike Judge ("King of the Hill") is slated to hit theatres in September. He will also soon be seen in the independent film Highway 61 opposite Tobin Bell. Thune's other film credits include Spring Breakdown, Unaccompanied Minors and Judd Apatow's hit comedy Knocked Up.

Born and raised in Seattle, Washington, Thune moved to Los Angeles at age 24 to pursue a career in comedy. Thune was working as a stand-up comedian, when he first found internet success in 2006, when his YouTube video "Phone Tag" went viral. Directed by Ruben Fleischer of MTV's hit reality show "Rob & Big," the sketch about a young man struggling to accept a break-up with a romance gone sour currently tallies almost 1 million page views on YouTube. An even greater buzz was created with Nick's production of "Masturbation." Thune's stage work included a masturbation joke that he thought would be even funnier as a short film. Once again with the assistance of Ruben Fleischer a film version of the joke was produced. A week later, after editing, Fleischer met with Funnyordie.com, the comedy video website from Will Ferrell and Adam McKay. In tandem with the debut launch of Funnyordie.com, "Masturbation" was posted on the front page directly below Ferrell's infamous Landlord Video.

With all of his internet success, Thune was invited to perform on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. In August 2007, on his second appearance on The Tonight Show, Thune's aptly named "Instant Messenger" stand up routine became an instant success. In 2008, Thune starred in his own "Comedy Central Presents" special. With the success of the special Comedy Central paid Thune to make iThunes, a series of short films for the World Wide Web. He also signed a deal to do a comedy album with Comedy Central Records. The album is due to drop this fall.

Thune currently resides in Los Angeles. In his spare time he grows tomatoes and tours the country, touching hearts, one joke at a time.
